This book develops methods to simulate and analyze the time-dependent changes of stress and strain states in engineering structures up to the critical stage of

This monograph presents approaches to characterize inelastic behavior of materials and structures at high temperature. Starting from experimental observations,

This comprehensive treatise covers in detail practical methods of analysis as well as advanced mathematical models for structures highly sensitive to creep and

The theory of viscoelasticity has been built up as a mechanical framework for modeling important aspects of the delayed behavior of a wide range of materials. T
